Here is a reproducer for the crasher, not the rendering bug: $ sudo apt-get install xfonts-bolkhov-75dpi gnome-terminal firefox $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config (and enable bitmapped fonts by default) $ sudo fc-cache -fv $ gconftool-2 --set /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/use_system_font --type bool false $ gconftool-2 --set /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/font --type string "Courier 10" $ gnome-terminal --window-with-profile=Default
Note, this courier is not from xfonts-75dpi but from xfonts-bolkhov- 75dpi. Might have to coax gnome-terminal into crashing by trying to change the font. Can get firefox to crash too by changing using: Fonts for: Western Sans-serif and serif fonts to 'Serene' fixed width to 'Courier' Default character encoding to be ISO-8859-1 For the rendering bug on a Gutsy desktop: $ sudo apt-get install xfonts-bolkhov-75dpi $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config (and enable bitmapped fonts by default) $ sudo fc-cache -fv Now go to System/Preferences/Appearance/Fonts Change the Window Title Font to Serene. Pre-patched libcairo2 will show the 'Preview text', patched libcairo2 will not. -- [CVE-2007-5503 security fix regression] firefox crashes after upgrading to libcairo2 1.4.10-1ubuntu4.1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
